SaturAid Granular Soil Wetter makes water soak deep down to the root zone of garden beds, pots and lawns for stronger, deeper root systems and healthier plants and lawns. SaturAid works immediately so that watering, rainfall and liquid feeding are more effective, even in hard-to-wet sandy, clay or compacted soils and potting mixes. SaturAid has a sustained, slow-release wetting agent for continued results, and is the choice of leading professional growers. Water problems often begin at the soil surface. Water run-off is a sure sign of hydrophobia, a condition that stops water penetration to the root zone. SaturAid is a wetting agent that helps water penetrate deep into the soil, where the plant needs water and nutrients most. It overcomes the common problems of water run-off, dry spots and uneven wetting of potting mixes and soil.
A treatment with SaturAid is long-lasting and will improve watering effectiveness for 12 months.

| Content | | | | | | | Why buy Boston Ivy?
Boston Ivy is one of our most popular climbers, and rightfully so. It suits Melbourne's weather perfectly. It is a self-adhering climber which grows by clinging to the wall or surface, but without damaging stonework or invading cracks. It can be used to cover unsightly fences, or add a lush layer of green over masonry.
Boston Ivy is deciduous and provides a phenomenal autumn display of oranges and red hues. It not only makes a fantastic addition to any garden, but is also a very cost effective way to add colour and beauty to bland areas.
What else do I need to know about buying Boston Ivy plants?
Boston Ivy is a very hardy and versatile climber and it can grow almost anywhere and under any conditions. However it loves a hot sunny spot with loose fertile soil and plenty of water, and in these ideal conditions it will grow to cover anything in no time.
Boston Ivy can also grow in shade, in pots, in poor soils and confined garden beds. However, if conditions are less than perfect, expect it to grow more slowly. The trick is to plant it more densely to achieve ideal coverage if this is the case.
Plant one plant every metre in ideal conditions, or more plants closer together if conditions are less than ideal.
